- Barre - 12-27-2000
Hi. I'm collecting Champagne Tops, known in French as 'plaques de muselets' or 'capsules de Champagne'. I collect the tops from all sparkling wines, not just genuine Champagne.
I'm talking about the little metal cap that protects the champagne cork from being cut by the wires - those which are lithographed, printed, or embossed.
If anyone reading this is willing to keep champagne tops for donating to my collection, I'll be very grateful. I can also use duplicates for trading.
Thanks, and Cheers!

Was going to ask if that included other bubblies, then saw that you included them. Can you post a postal address to send them to?

Sent you a box of corks with a few capsules 3-4 weeks ago. Hope you received them.
